| Summary, etc. |
The article describes and analyzes postwar changes in the Japanese state leading up to the 2000-2001 reforms in central policymaking and administrative structure. These reforms would assert the primacy of politicians in Japan's bureaucrat-dominated policymaking and Diet processes, and would streamline and reduce, through mergers, the number of national ministries from 22 to 13. Despite basic cultural and material differences between the two countries, the Japanese experience should inspire the Philippines to seek to strengthen its own bureaucracy and state as a development strategy. The issues involved in this strategy are briefly identified. - Reproduced. |
